LDAP integration?

[Robert Simmons <rs...@icat.com>]

Greetings,

I have been lurking on this list for some time and the progress in archiva
is amazing. What I was wondering if it is possible to integrate archiva into
LDAP so that roles can be set within LDAP and we can use our company's LDAP
server for the authentication. Let me know if that is possible pls.

I believe LDAP works for authentication (userid/password) but not for
authorization (roles).

Archiva relies on Redback for the user access bits, this page should
get you started:  http://redback.codehaus.org/integration/ldap.html
